| What it is | This program combines mathematics, statistics, and computer science to prepare you for work with data. The "Pathway" structure means you'll study foundational theory first, then specialize in one area as you progress. The mandatory co-op placements let you apply what you're learning in real workplaces while you study. It suits people who want to move beyond pure math into practical problem-solving with data and code. | A four-year honours degree in pure and applied mathematics, with a focus on both theoretical problem-solving and statistical analysis. Unlike a general math degree, this program runs deeper into advanced theory and proof-based courses. It suits students who enjoy abstract thinking and want to build strong mathematical foundations for graduate study, research, or technical roles in finance, engineering, or data science. | A three-year mathematics degree where you study pure and applied mathematics without the depth required for honours. You choose electives from computer science, physics, statistics, and economics to build a program suited to your interests rather than following a fixed honours sequence. This suits students who want solid mathematical training for careers in business, teaching, or technical fields without committing to graduate-level mathematics study. |

Ranges are what each university publishes, not guaranteed cutoffs, and limited-enrolment programs often admit above them. Confirm anything you are about to act on with the university; each column links to its source.
